Affiliate Agreement

Career Clarifier Affiliate Agreement

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE AFFILIATE AGREEMENT (THE "AGREEMENT"). THIS IS A LEGAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND CAREER CLARIFIER, INC. ("CAREER CLARIFIER"). BY SUBMITTING THE ONLINE APPLICATION, YOU ARE AGREEING THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT YOU AGREE TO BE LEGALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR EACH AND EVERY TERM AND CONDITION.

1. Overview
This Agreement contains the complete terms and conditions that apply to you becoming an affiliate (an "Affiliate") in Career Clarifier's Affiliate Program. The purpose of this Agreement is to allow HTML linking between your website and the www.careerclarifier.com website (the "Site"). Career Clarifier's Affiliate Program is a product for individuals and companies who sign up and agree to help market Career Clarifier's products in exchange for earning a commission. Affiliates may share information about Career Clarifier with their audiences/customers using social media, web/blog posts, newsletters, emails, and other forms of interaction. The Affiliate’s website uses a link or coupon or both (generated via Post Affiliate Pro, Career Clarifier's selected affiliate platform) to direct the Affiliate's audience to the Site. Upon visiting the Site, referred users are identified with a cookie. A qualifying purchase made by a user within 60 days of first visiting the Site results in a commission earned by the Affiliate. Please note that throughout this Agreement, "we," "us," and "our" refer to Career Clarifier, and "you," and "your" refer to the Affiliate.

2. Affiliate Obligations
To begin enrollment, you will complete and submit the online application at the Site. The application is hosted by Post Affiliate Pro, and your use of the Post Affiliate Pro application process is subject to your agreement to the Post Affiliate Pro Terms and Conditions of Use (https://www.postaffiliatepro.com/terms-of-service/) and the Post Affiliate Pro Privacy Policy (https://www.postaffiliatepro.com/privacy-policy/). You are not automatically approved. Post Affiliate Pro notifies us by email of your application, and then we review the application. We can approve or deny the application for any reason. If your application is approved, you are automatically assigned a referral link which is auto-generated by Post Affiliate Pro.

Please note that we may cancel your application or your status as an affiliate at any time and for any reason, including without limitation, if we determine that your site:

(i) promotes sexually explicit materials;
(ii) promotes violence;
(iii) promotes discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or age;
(iv) promotes illegal activities;
(v) incorporates any materials which infringe or assist others to infringe on any copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights or to violate the law;
(vi) includes "Career Clarifier" or variations or misspellings thereof in its domain name; or
(vii) is otherwise in any way unlawful, harmful, threatening, defamatory, obscene, harassing, or racially, ethnically, or otherwise objectionable to us in our sole discretion; or
(viii) contains software downloads that potentially enable diversions of commission from other affiliates in our program.

You may not create or design your website or any other website that you operate, explicitly or implied in a manner that resembles our Site, nor design your website that leads customers to believe you are Career Clarifier or any other business affiliated with Career Clarifier.

3. Career Clarifier Rights and Obligations
For us to accurately keep track of all guest visits from your site to ours, you must use the HTML code that we provide for each banner, text link, or another affiliate link we provide you with. Career Clarifier reserves the right, at any time, to review your placement and approve the use of any links from your site to our Site. The maintenance and the updating of your website will be your responsibility. It is entirely your responsibility to follow all applicable intellectual property and other laws that pertain to your website. We have the right to monitor your site at any time to determine if you are following the terms and conditions of this Agreement. We may notify you of any changes to your site that we feel should be made or to ensure that your site links are appropriate. If you do not make the changes to your site that we think are necessary, we reserve the right to terminate your participation in the Career Clarifier Affiliate Program. This Agreement will begin upon our acceptance of your Affiliate application and will continue unless terminated hereunder.

4. Termination
Either you or we may end this Agreement at any time and for any reason, with or without cause, by giving the other party written notice. Written notice can be in the form of mail (Career Clarifier, LLC, 3236 Forum Blvd (#1132), Fort Myers, FL 33905) or email to [email protected]. In addition, this Agreement will terminate immediately upon any breach of this Agreement by you. In all events, Sections 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 will survive termination of this Agreement.

5. Modification
We may modify any of the terms and conditions in this Agreement at any time at our sole discretion. In such event, you will be notified by email. Modifications may include, but are not limited to, changes in the payment procedures and Career Clarifier's Affiliate Program rules. If any modification is unacceptable to you, your only option is to terminate this Agreement. Your continued participation in Career Clarifier's Affiliate Program following the posting of the change notice or new Agreement on our Site will indicate your agreement to the changes.

6. Payment
When a user of your website uses your affiliate identifier (unique referral URL or promotion code) to access the Site, a cookie is set in their browser that identifies you as the referring Affiliate. Also, the user's IP address is tracked. If within a designated time frame (60 days unless otherwise changed by Career Clarifier pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) the user decides to buy a qualifying Career Clarifier product, Post Affiliate Pro will look for this cookie and/or try to match the user's IP address to identify you as the Affiliate to be awarded a commission.

Note that in order for a user's sales to be tracked to a specific Affiliate, the user must purchase the Career Clarifier product using the same computer and browser that was used to initially click on the Affiliate link from the Affiliate's website. Also, the user must not have cleared or reset its cookies.

Career Clarifier pays commissions according to the schedule displayed on the application page: (https://www.careerclarifier.com/affiliate). Commissions will show up in your account with Post Affiliate Pro. Commissions are paid each time your total unpaid commissions balance reaches $45.00 or monthly if your commissions balance exceeds $45.00 per month. Every time a qualifying sale is associated with your affiliate link or promotion code, you will earn a commission.

Career Clarifier uses PayPal and Zelle to make payments to its Affiliates. To be an Affiliate you must have a valid PayPal or Zelle account. Your use of a PayPal account to receive payments from Career Clarifier is subject to PayPal' Terms of Use (https://www.paypal.com/gi/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full) and the PayPal Privacy Policy (https://www.paypal.com/gi/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full), or Zelle Terms of Use (https://www.zellepay.com/legal/terms-use) and the Zelle Privacy Policy (https://www.zellepay.com/legal/legal-and-privacy).

In certain instances, Career Clarifier will consider requests for direct deposit on a case-by-case basis.

7. Access to Affiliate Account Interface
When you submit an Affiliate application, you are also signing up for a Post Affiliate Pro Affiliate account. With this account, you may view your account activity and account details (via the Post Affiliate Pro Affiliate Dashboard).

8. Promotion Restrictions
You are free to promote your own websites, but naturally, any promotion that mentions Career Clarifier could be perceived by the public or the press as a joint effort. You should know that Career Clarifier always prohibits certain forms of advertising. For example, advertising commonly referred to as "spamming" is unacceptable to us and could cause damage to our name. Other generally prohibited forms of advertising include the use of postings to non-commercial newsgroups and cross-posting to multiple newsgroups at once. In addition, you may not advertise in any way that effectively conceals or misrepresents your identity, your domain name, or your return email address, or that violates any applicable local, state, or federal law. You may use mailings to customers to promote Career Clarifier so long as the recipient is already a customer or subscriber of your services or website, and recipients have the option to remove themselves from future mailings. Also, you may post to news groups to promote Career Clarifier so long as the news group specifically welcomes commercial messages. At all times, you must clearly represent yourself and your websites as independent from Career Clarifier. Any pending balances owed to you will not be paid if your account is terminated due to unacceptable advertising or solicitation.

Affiliates that own or bid on keywords that are identical to or confusingly similar to Career Clarifier or any of our product names will be considered trademark violators and will be banned from Career Clarifier's Affiliate Program. We will do everything possible to contact you prior to the ban. However, we reserve the right to expel any trademark violator from our Affiliate Program without prior notice, and on the first occurrence of any behavior that suggests trademark infringement.

Career Clarifier will provide creative digital assets with the Career Clarifier logo and marketing information that Affiliates are allowed to place on their websites, in newsletters and emails, or on printed marketing collateral.

9. Grant of Licenses
We grant to you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to (i) access our Site through HTML links solely in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) solely in connection with such links, to use our logos, trade names, trademarks, and similar identifying material (collectively, the "Licensed Materials") that we provide to you or authorize for such purpose. You are only entitled to use the Licensed Materials to the extent that you are a member in good standing of Career Clarifier's Affiliate Program. You agree that all uses of the Licensed Materials will be on behalf of Career Clarifier, and the goodwill associated therewith will inure to the sole benefit of Career Clarifier.

13. Indemnification
You hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless Career Clarifier, and its subsidiaries and affiliates, and their directors, officers, employees, agents, shareholders, partners, members, and other owners, against any and all claims, actions, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, settlements, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) (any or all of the foregoing hereinafter referred to as "Losses") insofar as such Losses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based on (i) any misrepresentation of a representation or warranty or breach of a covenant and agreement made by you herein; (ii) any claim related to your website, including, without limitation, content therein not attributable to us; or (iii) your breach of this Agreement.
